An important duel in the bottom section of the Gladafrica Championship, with both University of Pretoria and Cape Town All Stars experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 12th and the visitors in 14th place.
- University of Pretoria has the most conceded goals in the first half (7) in Gladafrica Championship
- Cape Town All Stars has the most dropped points from leading position (12) in Gladafrica Championship
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Cape Town All Stars have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1400 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
University of Pretoria form and stats
2-2-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Gladafrica Championship numbers at home for University of Pretoria so far this season. The trend of drawing games is also valid regardless of arena as Pretoria has four draws from their last four matches. Two draws in a row at home now for Pretoria.
Pretoria are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus JDR Stars (after extra-time).
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Pretoria have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 14 matches with the results: Won two, drawn seven and lost five.

Cape Town All Stars form and stats
As the visiting team in Gladafrica Championship matches, Cape Town All Stars have produced an overall stat of 0-3-2 so far. With the Stars losing streak of five defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. Stars seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Cape Town All Stars play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-1 victory visiting Bizana Pondo Chiefs (placed 16th).
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Stars playing away and similar expectations, we found two relevant matches. Results were zero Cape Town All Stars wins, one draw and one defeat.
A quick return to home after this game, as Stars are hosting Sekhukhune United in the Gladafrica Championship only three days away.
The visitors have scored 4 goals from 5 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. As opposed to that, Stars have seen the ball go into their own net 7 times on the road.
